McCoy Tyner - Sama Layuca (Milestone)

Found this filed under T in my Exotica section.  At first I thought it was misfiled, as I probably have 15 Tyner LPs in the Jazz section.  After playing it, I think filing it under Exotica was a deliberate choice.

However one labels it, I think it's one of McCoy's finest hours. :tup

Hutcherson's vibes & marimba add some breathing room to McCoy's sometimes breathless music.

Primary

Charles Rouse - Two Is One [Strata East, Japan 1976 RE]

Today's arrival. Such an intriguing listen. Really enjoying it

I'm pleased to heat I'm not the only one who hears Tyner as breathless, more often than not for me, especially on Milestone. I also rate 'Sama Layuca, thanks to Bobby H.

Sure thing.  While albums like Sahara and Enlightenment have their adherents, there are others (like me) who -- while admiring them -- also find them to be tiring in their relentlessness, especially when taken as a whole.  

The two McCoy Milestone albums that are tops in my book are Sama Layuca and Horizon.  (On the latter album, I think violinist John Blake plays a "leavening" role that similar to Hutcherson's on Sama Layuca.)

Just my 2 cents, of course.  ;)

My 2 pence says the same...

Also, I have thoughts about Tyner with Coltrane but I keep them to myself as I want to live a bit konger

I am firmly on the other side of the equation - maybe because I experienced those groups in person.

Those were all wafer thin vinyls!

Do you also have this one? It was my favorite of the Maynar EOAE releases:

Also wafer-thin vinyl but excellent sound

😁 👍

I wish I could have seen the early-70s Tyner group live.  It might've influenced my perception of them too.
